EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "A New and Exact Plan of the City of York, 1748" takes us on a journey back in time to explore the architectural wonders and bustling streets of this historic English city. The print showcases the meticulous cartography skills of the anonymous 18th-century English School artist, who created this masterpiece as an updated edition of John Cossins' original map from 1727. As we delve into the intricacies of this plan, we are transported to a bygone era where Georgian elegance meets urban charm. The city's iconic landmarks come alive before our eyes: the majestic York Minster stands tall and proud at its heart, surrounded by a tapestry of buildings that reflect both fashionable secular housing and public institutions such as hospitals. The winding rivers Ouse and Foss gracefully meander through the cityscape, their presence enhancing both its beauty and functionality. We catch glimpses of well-preserved remnants like Micklegate, Skeldergate, Castlegate, St Saviourgate – all gateways into this walled city steeped in history. Every street corner tells a story; every pavement holds memories etched in stone. This meticulously detailed engraving captures not only the physical layout but also offers us a glimpse into daily life during that era – showcasing how architecture seamlessly blended with human existence. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we cannot help but marvel at its ability to transport us across centuries. It is an invitation
